Green & Co.'S report on cotton futures says
ION the market the holiday influence continues
to a considerable extent, and business shows
very little beyond local deals The general
tone to-day, however, has been pretty firm, and
the cost averaged higher throughout. At first
matters looked little toppy, but with some
strong bidding from one or two operators the
turn OF values was forced OIL an upward scale,
anu 90 points gam secured flrmer Liverpool
accounts and rather light receipts possibly
helped the tone somewhat. but the move was
evidently principally manipulation and by
some thought to be in anticipation of the issue
OF January notices. Some 7(0S points covered
the entire advance over Friday evening, and
after the bidding ceased, a greater portion of
this was lost with the close, which was steady,
but the movement dull"
